This repository serves as the source for a GitHub Pages site that publishes technical notes and learning resources under the 'Today I Learned' (TIL) format. It contains organized markdown files covering a wide range of software development topics, with particular emphasis on Apple platforms (iOS, macOS, etc.), but also including general programming, software practices, and other technical subjects. The site is built and deployed using GitHub Actions, with a simple Makefile automating the commit and push process for updating notes. The architecture is a straightforward static site where markdown content is converted to HTML by GitHub Pages. While primarily a content repository, it does contain reusable components such as a specific iOS universal links handling code snippet and automation patterns for repository maintenance.
The LLM identified 2 files worth highlighting for reuse:
Contains a reusable Swift code snippet for handling universal links in iOS applications. The code properly checks if a URL is a universal link, attempts to open it, and gracefully falls back to presenting a Safari view controller if the universal link fails or the app isn't installed. This demonstrates proper error handling and user experience considerations for deep linking.
Defines a simple but effective automation pattern for maintaining a notes repository. The 'publish-notes' target automates the process of checking status, adding all changes, committing with a standardized message, and pushing to the remote repository. This represents a reusable workflow pattern that could be easily adapted for other documentation or content-focused projects with minimal modification.
